{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:$info;">**Note:**</mark>

Payroll runs before **Sync data from** are ignored. Map every department, using **Department-specific accounts** for exceptions like routing engineering to COGS, and set **Taxes and Benefits Mapping** entries to a payroll liability or clearing account.
{% endhint %}

Once fully configured, the ADP Workforce Now integration keeps payroll journal entries aligned with your chart of accounts, with minimal manual effort required after each payroll run.
